Bringing it back home, Smirnoff kick started an extension of the global initiative in Nigeria tagged; #SMIRNOFX1FEMALEDJ; a concept that spotlights female DJs in Nigeria giving them a platform to showcase their talents, while also promoting the brand’s commitments to inclusivity and openness.

To promote this concept, Smirnoff Ambassador DJSpinall had earlier taken to social media calling out to female DJs across the country to be a part of this campaign by sharing entry videos; asking them to showcase their turntable skills and creativity; with the hope of becoming the #SMIRNOFFX1FEMALEDJ.
